Fredericktown aldermen approve four ordinances on water rates, personnel, engineering contract and water‑assistance deal
Summary
At its Oct. 27 meeting the Fredericktown Board of Aldermen approved four ordinances: a change to the water‑rate schedule, updates to personnel rules, a contract with Bayer Engineering, and a local agreement to accept Missouri low‑income household water assistance funds.
The Fredericktown Board of Aldermen on Oct. 27 approved four ordinances addressing water rates, personnel rules, an engineering contract and a state water‑assistance agreement.
The board read each ordinance by title and conducted second readings by title before taking roll‑call votes. An ordinance amending section 720.030 to adjust the city’s water‑rate schedule was read and declared passed. Council members likewise approved an amendment to the city’s personnel rules that updates the organizational chart, job titles and pay classifications; the roll call recorded at least one 'nay' during that vote but the ordinance was declared adopted. The board also authorized the mayor to execute a contract with Bayer Engineering for engineering services and approved an agreement with the Missouri Department of Social Services to participate in the Low‑Income Household Water Assistance Program (LIHWAP).
The meeting record shows each ordinance was presented by title only and approved by roll call; the transcript does not record detailed debate on the four items during the meeting. The ordinances were presented under new business and each was announced as passed following the roll‑call responses.
The board then approved two accounts‑payable items to pay city bills and moved on to other business.
